L&N HH660 #10 - Louisville & Nashville  Contributor's Pick!       
Although offered as an Atlas scale model diesel, I couldn't find much information on this Alco-Schenectady built HH660 switcher. I believe this particular one had a serial #69080 and was delivered 9/1939 to L&N. I have no idea of its final disposition either. A rare diesel to say the least! Thanks to Robert Beicher for the added information (below in the comments section) about this unit!

Robert Beichler General According to the Diesels Spotters Guide, L&N 10 was a HH660 with the up graded 539 prime mover and electical grear. She was 1 of 43 built 39-40 and the only one L&N had. Very rare and very sweet find. 1/6/2014 7:20:29 PM
